	Telegraph \| News \| Count Lennart Bernadotte
		Bernadotte was a grandson of King Gustaf V of Sweden, and in 1932 he had caused something of a scandal by marrying a commoner, Karin Nissvandt, against his parents' wishes and without royal consent.
		Mainau, which has close links with Kew, was the first garden in Europe to pass an eco-audit, in 1998, and every year for half a century it has played host to a gathering of Nobel laureates and students for a discussion of scientific and ecological issues.
		Mainau's owner was a much admired and popular figure in Germany, where, on account of his philoprogenitive prowess (he had nine children, the youngest born 50 years after his eldest), he was nicknamed by the press "Spermadotte".
